it should be mentioned, that what is probably helping Dan a lot this year is having his name mentioned for a lot a big jobs like Penn State. he can use that w/ recruits to show his value but look them in the eyes and tell them he's committed to MSU. it's a nice touch when the coach is vague w/ the media on his future but very candid w/ the recruit and his family. Spurrier had a lot of success when his name was being floated around for the Bama job.... but, if Mullen were to leave town, MSU's class would fall apart.

Not happening

Mullen agreed to a 1 year contract extension yesterday with our AD. (In Mississippi the longest contract anyone can have is 4 years, since you can't have a contract for longer than the governor) Dan and his wife Megan are very happy in Starkville.

I think this is exactly what he's been doing the last two years. He has some good recruiters on his staff. He is the only one known for not being a good recruiter, so I guess he had to do something and it's working. Programs like state have to keep a coach at their school for a while to be successful. If he can stay, we will build evey year, and he's locked in four four years at the moment so I am happy as shite.
